The present invention provides compounds, and compositions thereof, useful as inhibitors of protein kinases.
The search for new therapeutic agents has been greatly aided in recent years by a better understanding of the structure of enzymes and other biomolecules associated with diseases. One important class of enzymes that has been the subject of extensive study is protein kinases.
Protein kinases constitute a large family of structurally related enzymes that are responsible for the control of a variety of signal transduction processes within the cell. Protein kinases are thought to have evolved from a common ancestral gene due to the conservation of their structure and catalytic function. Almost all kinases contain a similar 250-300 amino acid catalytic domain. The kinases may be categorized into families by the substrates they phosphorylate (e.g., protein-tyrosine, protein-serine/threonine, lipids, etc.).
In general, protein kinases mediate intracellular signaling by effecting a phosphoryl transfer from a nucleoside triphosphate to a protein acceptor that is involved in a signaling pathway. These phosphorylation events act as molecular on/off switches that can modulate or regulate the target protein biological function. These phosphorylation events are ultimately triggered in response to a variety of extracellular and other stimuli. Examples of such stimuli include environmental and chemical stress signals (e.g., osmotic shock, heat shock, ultraviolet radiation, bacterial endotoxin, and H2O2), cytokines (e.g., interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)), and growth factors (e.g., granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)). An extracellular stimulus may affect one or more cellular responses related to cell growth, migration, differentiation, secretion of hormones, activation of transcription factors, muscle contraction, glucose metabolism, control of protein synthesis, and regulation of the cell cycle.
Many diseases are associated with abnormal cellular responses triggered by protein kinase-mediated events as described above. These diseases include, but are not limited to, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, bone diseases, metabolic diseases, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies and asthma, Alzheimer's disease, and hormone-related diseases. Accordingly, there remains a need to find protein kinase inhibitors useful as therapeutic agents.

In certain embodiments, a composition of this disclosure is formulated for administration to a patient in need of such composition. In some embodiments, a composition of this disclosure is formulated for oral administration to a patient.
Compounds and compositions, according to method of the present invention, are administered using any amount and any route of administration effective for treating or lessening the severity of a disorder provided herein (i.e., a JAK2-mediated disease or disorder). The exact amount required will vary from subject to subject, depending on the species, age, and general condition of the subject, the severity of the infection, the particular agent, its mode of administration, and the like. Compound 1 (e.g., a crystalline anhydrous form, a crystalline hydrate form, a crystalline solvate form, or a crystalline heterosolvate form) is preferably formulated in unit dosage form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage.
Compositions of the present disclosure may be administered orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, vaginally, intraperitoneally, intracisternally or via an implanted reservoir. In some embodiments, the compositions are administered orally, intraperitoneally or intravenously.
Sterile injectable forms of the compositions of this disclosure may be aqueous or oleaginous suspension. These suspensions may be formulated according to techniques known in the art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium.
For this purpose, any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or di-glycerides. Fatty acids, such as oleic acid and its glyceride derivatives are useful in the preparation of injectables, as are natural pharmaceutically-acceptable oils, such as olive oil or castor oil, especially in their polyoxyethylated versions. These oil solutions or suspensions may also contain a long-chain alcohol diluent or dispersant, such as carboxymethyl cellulose or similar dispersing agents that are commonly used in the formulation of pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms including emulsions and suspensions. Other commonly used surfactants, such as Tweens, Spans and other emulsifying agents or bioavailability enhancers which are commonly used in the manufacture of pharmaceutically acceptable solid, liquid, or other dosage forms may also be used for the purposes of formulation.
Injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium prior to use.
In order to prolong the effect of Compound 1 (e.g., a crystalline anhydrous form, a crystalline hydrate form, a crystalline solvate form, or a crystalline heterosolvate form), it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the compound from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of Compound 1 (e.g., a crystalline anhydrous form, a crystalline hydrate form, a crystalline solvate form, or a crystalline heterosolvate form) then depends upon its rate of dissolution that, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered Compound 1 (e.g., a crystalline anhydrous form, a crystalline hydrate form, a crystalline solvate form, or a crystalline heterosolvate form) is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the compound in an oil vehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsule matrices of the compound in biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide. Depending upon the ratio of compound to polymer and the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of compound release can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymers include poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectable formulations are also prepared by entrapping Compound 1 (e.g., a crystalline anhydrous form, a crystalline hydrate form, a crystalline solvate form, or a crystalline heterosolvate form) in liposomes or microemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.
In some embodiments, provided pharmaceutically acceptable compositions are formulated for oral administration. Such formulations may be administered with or without food.

Solubility was assessed in an array of diverse solvents in order to facilitate the selection of solvent systems and corresponding dosing strategies for the subsequent crystal-form screening experiments. The solubility of Form A was visually estimated in 12 solvents at RT and, if applicable, at 40° C. by dosing small aliquots of the solvent into a fixed amount of the API (10.0 mg) until the dissolution point or a maximum volume of 1.8 mL was reached. As shown in Table 1, Form A exhibits high solubility (>100 mg/mL) in DMSO, MeOH, and water, but low solubility (≤5 mg/mL) in all other solvents evaluated.

The solvents were utilized as neat and binary mixtures to provide a diverse set of polarities, dielectric constants, dipole moments, and hydrogen-bond donor/acceptor attributes. Water-containing solvents with a variety of water activities were also included.
Crystallization Modes. The crystal form screening study employed the following crystallization modes using amorphous input material:
Analysis of Screening Products. FT-Raman spectroscopy was chosen as the primary method for analysis and grouping of samples. Representative samples from the groupings were analyzed by PXRD to verify their uniqueness. Where possible/practical, a representative sample of the unique form was further characterized by polarized-light microscopy, DSC, and/or TGA-IR.

High Resolution X-Ray Powder Diffraction (high resolution XRPD). High-resolution diagrams are recorded at ambient conditions on a Panalytical X'Pert Pro MPD powder diffractometer using the Bragg-Brentano (vertical θ-2θ configuration) parafocusing geometry coupled with a X'Celerator detector. A sealed copper anode X-ray tube is used, running at 45 kV and 40 mA levels. An incident beam monochromator (Johansson type: a symmetrically cut curved germanium (111) crystal) produces pure Cu K α 1 radiation (λ=1.54060 {acute over (Å)}). A thin layer of the product is deposited on a single-crystal silicon wafer, cut out according to Si (510) crystallographic orientation that, by systematic extinction, impedes any Bragg reflection. In order to bring more crystallites into the diffraction position and thus reduce the influence of particle statistics on the measurements, a sample spinner is used. The spinner rotation speed is set at 1 revolution per second. The angular range extends from 2 to 50° in 2θ, with a 0.017° step size in 2θ. A variable counting time from 500 to 5000 seconds per step was used.
X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD). XRPD analyses are carried out on a Siemens-Bruker D5000 Matic powder diffractometer using the Bragg-Brentano (vertical θ-2θ configuration) parafocusing geometry. A sample feeder makes it possible to automate the work. If enough of the product is available, the powder is top-loaded on a concave stainless steel sample holder. Otherwise, a thin layer of the product is deposited on a single-crystalline silicon wafer, cut out according to Si (510) crystallographic orientation that, by systematic extinction, impedes any Bragg reflection. A sealed cobalt anode X-ray tube running at 40 kV and 30 mA levels is used. Two lines are typically emitted: CoKα1 (λ=1.7890 Å) and CoKα2 (λ=1.7929 Å). An Iron β-filter, placed between the detector and specimen, does not altogether eliminate CoKβ (λ=1.6208 Å) radiation, which still contributes about 1% of the diffracted beam at the detector (manufacturer's data). The primary beam passes through a parallel plate collimator (0.2 mm Soller slits), then through a divergence slit (0.2 mm). A Braun 50 M multicanal linear detector completes the setup. It has a 8°-wide detection window in angle 2θ. Diagrams should be recorded in the following conditions: a 2 to 50.0° scan in angle 2θ, 20 seconds counting time per degree in 2θ, and ambient conditions of pressure, temperature and relative humidity.
Temperature and Relative Humidity X-Ray powder diffraction. Tests are carried out with a Siemens-Bruker D5000 diffractometer equipped with the Bragg-Brentano parafocusing (θ-θ) geometry and an Anton-Paar TTK450 temperature chamber. For certain tests a dry nitrogen or RH streams is used. The powder is deposited in a concave stainless steel sample holder. A sealed cobalt anode X-ray tube running at 40 kV and 30 mA levels is used. Two lines are typically emitted: CoKα1 (λ=1.7890 A) and CoKα2 (λ=1.7929 Å). An Iron β-filter, placed between the detector and specimen, does not altogether eliminate CoKβ (λ=1.6208 Å) radiation, which still contributes about 1% of the diffracted beam at the detector (manufacturer's data). The beam is sighted using Soller slits, to improve its parallelism. Variable divergence slits keep the illumination area of the sample constant. A 1 mm collimator limits diffusion between the tube and the sample. A Braun 50-M multicanal linear detector completes the setup. It has a 8°-wide detection window in angle 2θ. Temperature is allowed to rise at a rate of 0.05° C./sec. Diagrams are usually recorded in the following conditions: a 1.5 to 50.0 degree scan in angle 2θ, 10 to 15 seconds counting time per degree in 2θ. Data are acquired in isotherm mode when the requested temperature is reached.
Simultaneous Thermogravimetric Analysis coupled FTIR spectrometer (TGA-FTIR). Analyses are carried out using a TG209C Netzsch Instrument coupled with a Tensor 27 Bruker FTIR spectrometer. This system allows simultaneous thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and FTIR chemical identification of the evolved compounds (water and solvents). The evolved gases are carried off to the FTIR spectrometer through a transfer line heated to 476 K to prevent condensation of the evolved products. A sample mass of 5 to 10 mg is deposited in an aluminum crucible. The TGA-FTIR analysis is conducted under a dry nitrogen stream at 10 mL/min. Usually the sample is heated from 298 to 520-570 K at a rate of 5 K/min. A spectral domain from 4000 to 700 cm-1, a resolution of 4 cm-1 and 20 scans/spectrum are used for the FTIR spectrum recording. For each solvent to be analyzed by FTIR a specific wave number range related to the solvent type has to be chosen.
Thermogravimetric analysis. Analyses are carried out on a T.A. instruments TGAQ500 or TGAQ5000 analyzers. Mass calibration is performed with 10 and 100 mg certified masses and the instrument is temperature calibrated with alumel and nickel standards (Curie points of respectively 154° C. and 354° C.). Samples are exposed to a constant nitrogen stream of 60 mL/min and temperature ranges from 20 to 250° C. at a 5° C./min rate. The quantity of product lies between 2 and 5 mg. The powder is deposited in an open aluminum sample pan, which is itself placed in a platinum pan.
Differential Scanning calorimetry (DSC). Analyses are carried out under a nitrogen stream with a T.A. Instruments Q1000 (or a Q200) analyzers. The calorimeters are temperature-calibrated with indium and lead (onset temperatures of 156.6° C. and 327.5° C. respectively). Energy calibration is done with a certified indium calibrator (melting enthalpy of 28.45 J/g). A mechanical compressor is used to obtain and equilibrate the temperature program: from 0 to 270° C. at a rate of 5° C./min under a constant nitrogen stream of 55 mL/min (respectively 50 mL/min). The quantity of product analyzed lies between 1 and 5 mg, and is placed in a crimped or aluminum sample pan.
Moisture sorption/desorption isotherms. All experiments were performed on a DVS-1 automated gravimetric vapour sorption analyser (Surface Measurement Systems Ltd., London, UK). The DVS measures the uptake and loss of vapour gravimetrically using a Cahn D200 recording ultra-microbalance with a mass resolution of ±0.1 μg. A controlled relative humidity is generated by mixing different proportions of dry and water saturated carrier gas streams (monitored by mass flow controllers). The temperature was maintained constant, ±0.1° C., by enclosing the entire system in a temperature-controlled incubator. A sample size around 10 mg was used. Prior to being exposed to any water vapour the samples were dried at 0% relative humidity (RH) to remove any surface water present and establish a dry, baseline mass. Next, the samples were exposed to an increasing relative humidity raised by a step of 5% RH from 0% to 95% RH (or 90% RH). At each stage, the sample mass was allowed to reach equilibrium before the relative humidity was increased or decreased (considering that equilibrium was established when dm/dt ratio (m=mass; t=time) did not exceed the value of 3.3 10-4 mg/s during 30 minutes). If equilibrium state was not reached, the change in relative humidity took place automatically after 600 minutes. Two consecutive cycles were recorded. From the complete moisture sorption and desorption profile an isotherm was calculated using the DVS Advanced Analysis Suite v3.6. All experiments were performed at 25.0° C.
